Leviton recently announced its GreenMAX Relay Control Panels were chosen by Consulting-Specifying Engineer (CSE) magazine as the Best Product of the Year for lighting control products.

The GreenMAX family of relay control panels affords an industry-leading short circuit current rating (SCCR) of 25,000 Amps (at 277 VAC) for maximum service life, robust latching modules for incandescent and fluorescent loads, integrated dimming and switching capabilities along with daylighting – all in one energy-smart, cost-effective lighting management solution.

Leviton’s SECTOR™ Intelligent Ballast and Lighting Control System combines several energy-saving technologies–occupancy sensing, daylight harvesting and dimming–into one conveniently integrated system. This topology free system uses the same wiring type for all SECTOR™ components and accessories making it one of the easiest lighting control systems to install. To further simplify installation, all components are on a single bus, with accessories connected to the network, not the ballast. The SECTOR™ family of products provides a scalable solution that offers maximum flexibility and maximum coverage in any application–from a single room to a campus of buildings.

Leviton recently announced the acquisition of Quantran Systems Limited. Quantran’s products, capabilities and presence in strategic international markets further expand Leviton’s global strength in commercial lighting control systems.

Leviton Manufacturing Company’s GreenMAX™ Relay Control System and Sector™ Intelligent Ballast Controls have both been named by Building Operating Management Magazine among its top 100 products of the year. There were over 500 products submitted and the winners were chosen by the building and facility management executives that subscribe to the magazine, 100% reader selected. Both the GreenMAX and Sector products will be featured in the January 2011 issue of Building Operating Management (BOM) as a Top Products Award Winner.
